The End of an Era
Today is kind of a sad day for me. It is Dale Earnhardt Jr’s last race as a NASCAR Cup driver. He is retiring from driving full time in the Cup series after this season ends, and today is the last race of the season. I started watching NASCAR during the 2000 season, which was … Continue Reading
Music Feeds the Soul
I’ve been in a pretty crappy funk for a while now. I hate it. I can’t seem to pull out of it. However, the past couple of days I have seen a glimmer of hope … thanks to the playlist I’ve been listening to at work (and have been listening to while I’ve been writing … Continue Reading
Country Home
While I may be a high tech broad, I’m more comfortable with my redneck side. I love making websites, but I’m more at home listening to country music and watching NASCAR. When it comes to music, nothing is better than a live show. I’ve been to quite a few concerts over the past couple of years … Continue Reading
My 2015 Chase Grid
It’s that time of year again. The Chase is starting this weekend. I should probably put together my Chase grid. I didn’t do very well last year, and I probably won’t even come close to getting it right this year. But it is kinda fun to figure out who I think is going to win. … Continue Reading
Our Government Hard at Work
While reading my tweets on my lunch break, I ran across a tweet by Nate Ryan about a House rep from MN proposing an amendment related to NASCAR. MILITARY MUSIC/NASCAR — Rep. Betty McCollum (D-Minn.) has a pair of amendments that would prevent the military from advertising on NASCAR vehicles and limit to $200 million … Continue Reading
Aggressive vs. Tantrum
If you know me (either IRL or online), you know that I’m a NASCAR fan. I am a passionate NASCAR fan. I am a fan of Dale Earnhardt Jr, Martin Truex Jr, Brad Keselowski, Paul Menard, and Scott Riggs. I will always stand behind my drivers, but if they do something stupid, I’ll call ’em … Continue Reading
I’m in ‘Dega … kinda
Last year I mentioned that I signed up to have my name on Dale Earnhardt Jr’s racecar in the race at Talladega. AMP decided to do the promotion again this year. Of course I had to sign up again. Last year my name was on the roof of the car. This year it’s on the … Continue Reading
Open letter to ESPN
RE: NASCAR race coverage To whom it may concern: We need to talk about the quality of your coverage of the Nationwide series and Sprint Cup series race broadcasts. I can sum the broadcasts up in one word: POOR. You really need to improve the quality of the broadcasts. You are managing to piss off … Continue Reading
Who makes these decisions?
If I don’t write this post, I think I am going to explode. I’ll give you a heads up saying that this is not going to be a happy post. LOL Anyone who knows me knows that I am a NASCAR fan. I don’t miss a race unless there is absolutely no way to watch … Continue Reading
Not a good start
I mentioned yesterday that I found out that my name is on Dale Earnhardt Jr’s car for this weekend’s race. I’m still giddy just thinking about it. But I hope I didn’t jinx Jr by my name being on the car. During the first practice today, he had engine issues, and they had to change … Continue Reading
